Rich Text Format (RTF)
The Rich Text Format (RTF) is one of the document formats supported by Microsoft Word and many other word processing applications. RTF is a human readable word processing format intended for interchange between different applications on various platforms and it has been around for 20 years. The new XML-based formats are becoming more common, but RTF is still being supported and updated by Microsoft. The latest version is RTF 1.9 Specification from January 2007.
RTF features in Aspose.Words:
· Aspose.Words can read and write files in the RTF format of any version.
· Aspose.Words supports over 95% of the RTF 1.8 Specification, which makes Aspose.Words an excellent and lossless tool for working with RTF documents.
· Unknown keywords (unsupported or from newer specifications) are safely ignored.
The RTF specification is a set of keywords. There are over 1400 keywords in the RTF 1.8 Specification. Aspose.Words fully supports (reads and writes) over 1300 of those keywords (over 95%). It is hard to find a similar level of implementation in other products.
